I am hoping to take this affirmation book process a step farther and get everyone involved....So, I will continue to post my morning affirmation but I will leave it with a question or two at the end which I hope will prompt you to journal or draw or both to get yourself on a path of self discovery...one small affirmation at a time!

Reflection

As I sit here and reflect on my week I am aware that I have been a day behind this week! I was off balanced at the beginning of the week with all that was going on in my life that caused me to question people, places and things..but as the week progressed I found that I could handle it all as long as I held onto the love in my heart and the grace of forgiveness...letting go of the questions that I could not possibly answer because it is not in my nature to even think about doing such harm to another person. I am very aware that I DO NEED time alone...silent time, reconnecting time, time to look within for my answers without the sound of anything but the beating of my own heart. And as the week progressed I found some of the smallest things that caused deep smiles allowing them to overtake any troubles that I was feeling and allowing my creativity to soar. I am taking great steps to not only expose myself to myself, but also to others and by the end of the week I saw a glimpse of it within the pages of a national magazine, and this made me so aware to continue to be diligent to the steps that I am taking to connect...connect to myself and connect to other creative souls and those who stand on the edge. So today, as I reflect I am allowing all of this to wash over me, and soak in! I am feeling bright and ready to go on to the next step...for this adventure is taking place with one foot directly placed in front of the other...slowly..steadily..and with passion. My heart leads the way. So that would be my wish for you today, as you reflect on your week...May you rise above any hurt that you have felt and may your heart lead you safely on your way toward the stars. My question for you would be:WHAT CAN YOU ALLOW YOURSELF TO LET GO OF SO THAT YOU CAN PROCEED FORWARD FROM YOUR HEART?Artfully Yours,Pattie

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL and thought-provoking post! AHhhh, but you know that my heart is a sweet Maui Onion...protected by a thousand diaphanous layers of experience and emotion. I continue to learn (and risk) peeling back the layers; allowing the ones that do not serve to dissolve and become one with the Light...which shines from the Universal Heart of Love...exposing the authentic heART within....
